66-Year-Olds Sharon Stone Shares Joan Collins’ Timeless Tips On Life After 40

Sharon Stone walked the red carpet at the Academy Awards looking stunning, confident, and graceful. During a quick interview with a Fox News reporter, she discussed viewing life in the best possible way.

This perspective appears especially deep, considering what she has endured—a near-lethal brain hemorrhage that reshaped her existence and the financial issues that followed. Rather than allowing challenges to define her, she decided to focus on her happiness and gratitude.

Sharon Stone and Joan Collins go way back. The two are close pals who share laughs and a mutual understanding of Hollywood. So when Collins had at some point advised Stone on matters of life, the advice caught her attention. Years ago, Stone had been at a party at the home of Jackie Collins, the famous romance novelist and sister of Joan.

As they were playing a game of billiards, Joan leaned over to Sharon and playfully conveyed two things she never should do after 40: get on top and wave goodbye. Stone recalled this advice with a laugh, savoring Collins’ signature mix of humor and insight. Joan Collins always possessed a talent for words. She once joked about a certain type of man as a “bungalow”—everything downstairs, nothing upstairs.

Sharon Stone still adores her body

At almost 67, Sharon Stone does not let age get the best of her. Most individuals, she explains, become disconnected from their bodies as they grow older and see the changes as a reason to give up on personal grooming. Not Stone, who still adores and appreciates her body for all it has endured.

She affectionately owns the natural age-induced changes in her body, joking that her underarms now sport “pleats.” Rather than see this as a defect, she calls them angel wings, which represent strength and creativity. With decades of work in a youth-obsessed industry, she has taken a different perspective—one that celebrates the body in all phases.
